Centring on three topics - cognition, language and relationships - the book explores the individual areas as well as the ways in which they intersect. It brings to light the implications of individual differences among members of the elderly population as they affect co

Abstract

Les femmes et les hommes ne sont pas inertes face à leur vieillissement, lequel s'impose pourtant à eux de façon contraignante. Vieillir engage en effet un travail psychique intense qui mobilise les fragilités de chacun, au risque de la souffrance, et parfois de la pathologie, mais aussi ses ressources et ses potentialités de changement. En explorant les principaux aspects d'une aventure marquée par l'intranquillité et aussi communément partagée qu'éminemment subjective, Benoît Verdon montre comment la confrontation à la finitude, à la moindre capacité, ne fait pas en soi de la vieillesse un temps de soumission, mais un temps de compromis, de construction et d'invention pour vivre encore et, parfois, se rencontrer enfin.

Abstract

With the aspiration for a long life now achievable for many individuals, the status of old age as a distinct social position has become problematic. In this radical re-examination of the nature of old age, Paul Higgs and Chris Gilleard reveal the emergence of a 'fourth age' that embodies the most feared and marginalised aspects of old age, conceptually linked to and yet distinct from traditional models of old age. Inspired by the authors' ground-breaking work on the third and fourth age and supported by extensive sociological, medical and historical research, Rethinking Old Age offers a unique and timely analysis of the fourth age as a 'social imaginary' that is shaped and maintained by the social, cultural and political discourses and practices that divide later life. It stands as a significant resource for students, academics and practitioners of Sociology, Ageing Studies, Gerontology, Social Policy, Health Studies, Social Work and Nursing.

Abstract

La psychanalyse doit-elle renoncer devant le vieillissement, inéluctable ? Non, car le vieillir psychique n’est pas analogue au vieillissement corporel. Non, car la force du psychisme se nourrit du temps et de l’expérience même du corps qui change l’évolution psychique ne s’arrête pas devant les rides, elle les intègre, les transcende le Moi change, se remanie, se renforce ou se fait plus souple : confronté aux pertes successives qui frappent ses objets d’amour, il tente de les combler et gagne en intériorité ce qu’il perd en étendue. François Villa nous guide dans un voyage sur des terres qui nous sont promises et nous fait percevoir la vie forcenée qui précède la définitive glaciation.
